I started this diagnoses with no voice, had to learn to speak again, now I'm left with a raspy and uneven speech.
It's the only symptom leaves me not talking 😥

Sometimes my voice will become raspy, but it has returned back to a normal tone.

If I laugh really hard I will lose my voice, and takes about 5 minutes after I have stopped laughing to come back.

I had the same issue and was diagnosed with spasmodic dysphonia—spasms of the vocal chords. Drinking alcohol helps relax the vocal chords but I don’t recommend it for treatment. I did just get my first Botox injections into my vocal chords. My voice is already better but it will take a week to know full results. I saw an ENT who specializes in voice disorders .

I experience the raspy voice too

I often go thru times when I think I'm going to lose my voice. And drinking water doesn't help. I didn't know it is MS related. Cough lollies help bring moisture back into my throat
